On the main plane, Shado did not see the crown on the head of Elder Everriska, not even the Great Elder on a formal occasion (the establishment of the Northland Alliance).
The covenant crown in the projection plane can be passed down, which represents the inheritance of power and responsibility, but the main plane does not know that.
Combined with some of the current situation in Everesca on the main plane, Shado speculated that there was a high probability that the later elders would not recognize it.
After all, it is always difficult to persist in idealism. There are many cases of dragon slayers who eventually become evil dragons, let alone their successors.
In fact, after learning about the origin of Evriska in the projection plane, Shado is still very optimistic about the future development of Evriska. The only thing to worry about is that ideals cannot compete with people's hearts and time.
Thinking of this, Xia Duo suddenly wanted to conduct a social experiment. If he was lucky, he might have time to come back and test the results after returning to the main plane.
…
After the ceremony.
Elder Auroria summoned the heads of the big families, mage leaders, army commanders and even big businessmen in Evereska City to come to Yunding Tower.
Xia Duo, the Master of Athos, was solemnly introduced to the heads and heads in the city. Xia Duo was very interested in it and did not even leave his incarnation behind, only leaving an illusory projection with perception.
And his true form, which was actually the incarnation of Schilling, made an appointment with Ogus and Sergis to discuss matters at Athos Manor.
Shado had refused to join the Council of Elders in advance, and the other elders knew this. As for Sergis, Shado had already mentioned to Ogus that he wanted to do something practical.
For a high mage, apart from fighting, the only thing that matters right now is the Mystery Lock.
In the reception room, Chateau entertained Ogus and Sergis with the tea sent by Ogus. Before starting the formal conversation, he first made a vague suggestion on whether magic could be popularized in Everestka.
Sergis didn't have much reaction to this, but showed an expression of interest, but Ogus was different. His reaction was much stronger than Shado expected.
"Mage Athos, don't mention the popularization of magic again. It may be okay between you and me, but for ordinary spellcasters, who is willing to share precious knowledge with them? What's more, magic is not a gentle thing.
, on the contrary, it is very dangerous, so you must be cautious when dealing with magic-related matters!"
When Ogus said this, Sergis immediately became cryptic and showed a lack of interest. Seeing this, Shado could only sigh in his heart.
But since he wanted to do a social experiment, he definitely couldn't be convinced by the other party's few words. After thinking about it, Xia Duo took out a set of Nese scrolls from his personal space.
Of course, in the eyes of elves, this should be called [Betis Secret Scroll].
"Please see, you two, I have no right to make decisions about other mages, but for myself, I decided to donate this set of ancient secret scrolls to the Council of Elders of Everesca for free. I only hope that the elders can allow those who have reached the elite level in the field of magic.
A skilled spellcaster can borrow this secret scroll."
What Xia Duo took out at this time was the first set of ten golden pages of the Nese Scroll about the nature of the magic network and the principles of magic. This set did not contain much dangerous knowledge - compared to other sets, after all, the study of magic itself
There are risks.
The contents of this group are not only suitable for low- and medium-priced mages to lay the foundation, but also suitable for high-level and above to broaden their horizons and even pioneer innovations. Xia Duo plans to open this group first in the Tower of Time.
Even though it was only a limited opening for Sha Duo to mention the popularization of magic, Ogus was still greatly surprised. When he looked at the golden pages that Sha Duo handed over, his shocked expression could not be concealed:
"Athos, this - you -"
"let me see!"
When Sergis saw Ogus's exaggerated expression, he had never seen it in the past hundreds of years, which made him even more curious about the secret scroll that Shado took out.
Although the golden page itself exudes a strong magical aura, this aura may also be produced by guardian magic or encryption magic. The key depends on the content.
While Ogus was shocked, Sergis took a golden page from the opponent's hand, took one look at it, and could no longer look away.
Ogus, on the other hand, could not sit still at all. He was pacing back and forth in the reception room, seeming to be struggling in his heart. He looked at the golden page in his hand and then at Sergis who was indulging in the ocean of knowledge.
Finally, his eyes fell on Xia Duo, and he asked with a complex expression:
"Athos, do you really want to do this? Do you know what the consequences will be?"
"Maybe it will lead to resistance or even hostility from those upper-class families!"
Xia Duo was not surprised by such a result. In the elf world, the upper-class families relied on nothing else to rule for thousands of years, but knowledge, magic, and the ever-lasting high-level mage.
If all the knowledge about magic is popularized, then why should the upper-class families rule the country?
"More than that, I'm afraid that when the Council of Elders announces this decision, it will face unanimous opposition from all countries. Let alone independence, even the name of Everesca may not be preserved."
"so serious?"
Xia Duo did not expect that in this era, the class solidification within the elves has become so serious that even if magic is popularized, there is a high probability of being physically banned.
Even if it weren't for the covenant, Shado doubted whether Ogus would have given him a ride after hearing this idea.
"If you really have this idea, I suggest you set up a society to spread not only knowledge but also ideas. When the society grows, you may not need to do anything, and knowledge will naturally become popular."
Shado can completely understand Ogus's suggestion. It is basically the difference between outside the rules and within the rules. The elf world allows learning to exist and has a relatively complete set of rules.
Directly popularizing knowledge is a method outside the rules. If you don't have the strength to promote everything equally, it's best not to do this kind of thing.
Ogus said this, Shado almost already knows the bottom line on Everriska's side. It is okay to spread or even popularize knowledge, but it must not be done in the name of the official, and even if it is done in the name of the society, it cannot be too radical.
.
This reality disappointed Xia Duo.
Of course, from another level, the solidification of elves is completely good news for human beings who are still developing.
It's just that when humans surpass the elves, if the elves don't catch up, it may not be a good thing for humans.
The sages from Xia Duo's hometown once said, "If you enter, you will be helpless, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will perish." Of course, countries, civilizations and even races need opponents.
"I will consider this matter again. Now let's talk about business!"
